Guest at Expanding the Table in need of rent assistance – July 19, 2018


A Summerville woman who is regular guest at Expanding the Table and was talking with one of the volunteers one evening.  She shared that her husband had been sent to jail for failing to pay some outstanding fines.  He was going to be in jail for 90 days and she would lose the income that he contributed for that time.  She indicated that his employer promised him his job upon release but in the mean time she was in danger of being evicted out of the trailer she rented.  Change for a Dollar offered to assist with the rent and some other volunteers help with food and cleaning products she had requested as well.  Change for a Dollar met with the landlord and contributed toward the monthly rent payment.

Rent assistance – $200.00
